I took me couple of weeks or so to find anyone to root for this season. I was not impressed with any of this year's cast. I did think Carol should have stayed, and I thought I would like her. Jen and Dick were the first two I really started liking, and i haven't changed. I did like Eric for about a week, but he just started to get on my nerves. Sticking up for Daniele during the HOH contest was the last straw for me. He had the nerve to tell Jen to leave Dani alone at the same time he and Dick are bothering Jen. America's player or not, I will be thrilled to see Eric get the boot.

I remember Dani and Lisa as F2--"I need my husband!" Sigh--good year, that one.

ETA: I am rooting for Jen, Zach, and Jessica, in no particular order.

First I rooted for Mike because he seemed like a really decent guy; unfortunately, he made no connections in the house except for Kail.

Then I rooted for Nick because he was likable and interesting; unfortunately, he became so besotted with Daniele he stopped playing the game.

Next I rooted for Jen because under that self-centered exterior is a really wily character . . . and most important she bugged the hell out of Dick; unfortunately, she seems to be getting too friendly with Daniele, so Jen is now questionable.

Now I am rooting for Eric because he has the greatest burden and disadvantage of any of the house guests, being America's Player, and while he is having to juggle all these balls, most of the others are sort of along for a ride.

I have always admired the players that use strategy the most in this game. I like people that can pull a win for pov out of thin air as well. Floaters or people that just sit back and watch the game unfold never really get much praise from me. Trashing someone’s character is not strategy to me, neither is back stabbing for non game purposes, there are some really vile people playing this year and I’m having a hard time staying true to one player.

I would be happy if Jessica, Zach, or Jen win.

I'd be OK with a Dani or Jameka win.

I'd be annoyed if Dustin, Eric, or Amber win.

I'd hate it if Dick won.

Eric - he's our player & I want to stay in the game until the end.

Jen - she's really good at the challenges & has a game head on most of the time - doesn't let personal emotions play with her head.

Jess - cute & fun loving. I like her personality & upbeat attitude. Sure, she's playing mostly under the radar but she's fun to watch.

Dick - He's great at turning the house upside down & that gives us something to watch & talk about so sure, I don't want him going anywhere..at least yet.

Dustin - One of my most fav's until his HOH wk when he pulled out the greed card in the POV comp. I still enjoy his game play but he needs to loose Amber.

Kail - Gone this wk (fingers crossed). She really added nothing to this game.

Amber - Enough already with the sobbing! I have got to the point that I can't stand watching her or reading anything about her. She possibly is the weakest mentally we've ever seen on this show.

Dani - Don't like her bratty like actions. I'll give it to her that she is showing game abilities but she's just not likable to me & I want to see Dick play without her.

Zack & Jameka - the non-players of the game. Ummmm, how many ways can we say boring.

I think this thread needs to be revived--i can root for jessica, that's about it. Sorry to say but I think she's the only one in the house with the whole package--smart, friendly, cute, and likable.

Yep I agree Jessica gets my vote. But I fear that here HoH reign may change my mind. They all seem to get a little big headed during their week above.

I agree Stopthemadness, they all seem to get that big head when they get HOH. I like Jessica, and have changed my Rooting, I am now eliminating Dustin and Eric and Amber from my group....so Go Jessica, Jameka, Zach, Jen, Dani, and yes even Dick, but of course in no particular order.

The only thing I am wondering is when are they going to realize in order to win this game they need Dani or Dick, the 2 people they do not like in this game next to them at the end, especially Dick to win the Big prize! Geez when will they ever get this right?

I realized today that the only ones I can even half way support to win are Danille, Zach or Jen and maybe if I stretch, Dick. I really don't care for any of the others. Amazes me.

Ok, so I didn't know where to put this and I did post it in the Current Happenings thread where it got buried the moment I posted it, LOL. Anyway, I decided to put it here, and I will definitely not be Rooting for Eric at any point from this point on for reasons like the following:

Ok, so I saw this posted over at Jokes, and I had to post this hear as well, and yes I did hear it for myself on the feeds too. Its just that when I actually saw it written down, it hit me harder and I realized Eric is NOT a good person, and why bother bringing up a lie when it was not even necessary to mention it at all in this context! This is what I am referring to:

Fri 8:06 PM BBT Jess- she(Dani) is not the main target and I dont want her to feel like that - Hippiebitch
I put her up she gonna hate me..
Dustin - I dont think she'll hate you
Eric - I hope that when they leave they reveal that they were the ones to actually cast the votes
Eric- Im telling you he is the apple doesnt fall from the tree just coz shes disguising it in a 100 lb younger girls body the vemon is just the same

Eric just can't seem to stop spewing his hatred and lies when its just not necessary at all! I am bowing my head and shaking it too and will say that I am so ashamed of you at this moment Eric, you did not need to go this far :-(

Doesn't sound as bad as most of the stuff other players have said.

I agree Kiersten. I think Eric has gone way to far. I wonder if as AP we can make him put himself up.

I liked Dustin until he was HOH and then he just became someone who thought he was all that and a bag of chips. He was greedy in the POV and walked around like he ruled the world. The only one who handled HOH well was ED. As far as game play, and picking the winners that way..you would have to go with Danielle and ED. They figured out who was leading the others around on a leash. Eric has forgotten why he is in there. Some of the things he has been saying lately are so crude, and he is suppose to represent US.

Jameka - I like her and if she steps up her game play..she has one heck of a chance.

Amber - she needs to go home...she cried for 4 or 5 weeks...it was her idea to send Nick home and then cried like she never heard about it until it was to late.

Jen is someone I don't understand. Even if you don't show your emotions to the people standing there, you have to show them sometime...right????

Jessica - standing in the wings watching...may be a player...like Jameka...but has to step up...

Zack...I think he leaves the house and shows up after nominations to see who's butt he has to kiss.

My picks would be....Jess, Jamika, Dani and Dick.

I dislike Eric intensely. And it got worse when he starting throwing out there that Dick was guilty of incest with Dani. Had he said that in Dick's hearing, I fairly sure that Dick would have been taken out of the game for beating Eric.

Eric seems to think it is perfectly fine for him spew this garbage.

I like Jessica a lot. No one else is even close. I do appreciate Jen's ability to hang in there. That's about it.

Bastable, true, but He is supposed to be playing for us, representing us, So why is he saying things most of us would not say then? Its not called for, so yes its Does Sound Bad coming From America's Player, thats why I am not Rooting for him anymore now. :-(

I like Jess also but I don't root for her now that it is obvious she is part of the gang of 5. If Dustin and Eric would get voted out I think I would start to like her a lot more again. I also like Dani and Zach. Zach has to be given credit for hanging in there. He may not be the coolest kid on the block but he is doing the best he can . I actually did not like him at all to begin with but now he has sort of redeemed himself in my eyes.

Cmist I so agree, on all 3 of your picks. But I'll also laugh at the the gang of 5 it Jen ends up in the final 2, I think she is now doing what they did before stepping back and letting them all self destruct LOL

I am rooting for anybody but the 5 LNC who are so full of themselves that every time one of them opens their mouths I can't stop screaming at the screen. Eric and Dustin are the worst. Amber is beyond ignorant and Jess seems so vacuous. Jamkea wouldn't be so bad if she'd stop hiding behing her faith.

I'm rooting for Jessica and Jen in the final two. I don't care which one of those two wins.

I really don't care who wins at this point, but based upon who has said and done annoying or despicable things, along with who has provided the most entertainment, although this would never happen, I'd like to see this chaos ending ---

Zach: Win (I think the WHOLE group would lose their chit if that happened!)
Jess: Second (If it wasn't for her annoying voice and the immature way she spoiled the game for my gal, Carol, I'd want her to win)
ED: in the Janelle spot at Third (longest in the house without the Big Money, least time in sequester)
Jen: 4th (Almost as interesting to have in the house as ED...or her mentor, Dr Will)
Eric: 5th (Shame on you, Eric for all that you have done and all the AC's you didn't do)
Jameka: 6th (Since you try to use so many bible verses against the HGs, try this one for yourself - Judge not lest ye be judged)
Dustin: 7th (Go home and play with your dog, you know, the one you call N-word B-word)
Amber: 8th (Go cry somewhere about how it must have been "The Jews" that cost you the money)
Danielle: 9th (Only because I want ED to last)
